Chapter 1073: Chapter 305: Yearning for War (10,000 Words)_2

Even previously, when the Bishop’s Guard Captain Samuel came to his territory.

The information he provided had obvious discrepancies.

The only possibility was that an estate annexation occurred in Bo Xi Town recently.

In this way,

The plan to deploy cavalry to utilize their high mobility and flexibility to attack Bo Xi Town was difficult to carry out.

The current number of cavalry he possessed... five hundred heavy cavalry and one thousand one hundred light cavalry.

Even including the hundred horses seized from Connelly Manor and Louis Manor,

The cavalry force he could organize was only one thousand seven hundred cavalry.

If, like in Alba Town, attacking Connelly and Louis Manors,

The number of armed guards and peasants in the manors was limited.

Totaling around fifteen hundred people.

Plus, the grudges between the manor lords made them unwilling to provide military aid.

With the advantage of the soldiers’ armor and the cavalry’s superiority, it was easy to overrun the two manors!

Currently, in Bo Xi Town, only Benitez Manor and McKinley Manor remained.

The entire population gathered, following the orders and instructions of the two manor lords.

On ordinary days,

They might have continuous conflicts and friction over their respective interests.

Once faced with an external invasion,

As they both supported Jon Zuck, the manor lords would undoubtedly unite without hesitation!

Even if the two manors did not unite,

Benitez and McKinley Manors, each having nearly six to seven thousand guards and peasants,

Such a huge population would put tremendous pressure on seventeen hundred cavalry!

Surrounded by guards and peasants, his cavalry force would surely suffer significant losses.

A few days ago,

Jon Zuck had just gathered a group of supporter manor lords.

The current supporter manor lords were undoubtedly on high alert, extremely vigilant.

It was very likely they increased the vigilance on the main roads around the town.

The construction of defensive fortifications around manor residences...

To prevent a repeat of the fate of Connelly Manor and Louis Manor.

Being overrun by his armored soldiers!

Thinking of this, Lynn couldn’t help but frown.

The number of cavalry he had was still too few!

If only he had ten thousand now...

Let alone ten thousand cavalry, even with just five thousand cavalry,

He would surely wave his hand without hesitation, letting the cavalry army charge towards Bo Xi Town, to break the two manor lords!

Of course.

Ten thousand cavalry was just a fantasy for Lynn at the moment.

If archers and infantry were sent along with the cavalry...

The marching speed of the infantry would surely affect the assault capability!

By the time his armored soldiers arrived at Bo Xi Town,

The two manors’ guards and peasants would have completed gathering and be ready.

Even on the way to Bo Xi Town, implementing fortifications and ambushes to catch him off guard!

And the most important factor.

Time!

According to Tim Jones’s description, because of rugged roads, riding horseback alone took two days of marching.

Sending a large number of troops to march to Bo Xi Town would be busier and take even longer!

If on the way to attack Bo Xi Town, Jon Zuck, along with other manor lords, attacked Morgan Town...

Or coordinated with Benitez Manor and McKinley Manor to encircle his army...

The consequences would be unimaginable!

Standing constantly next to him, Rose saw that Lynn had no words and quietly waited.

Rose naturally understood that Lynn was thinking about the next step of the strategy.

A few minutes later, Lynn’s eyes lit up.

He glanced at Rose, still standing in the distance, and turned his head to look at the nearby guard, instructing.

"Find Wesley and let him meet me in the reception hall."

Receiving Lynn’s instructions, the guard quickly responded.

"Yes, my Lord!"

Without any hesitation, the guard took large strides and headed out of the manor castle.

Watching the guard leave, a trace of confusion appeared on Rose’s face.

Waiting for two minutes.

Wesley, wearing a composite half-armor, entered the reception hall with large strides.

After glancing at Rose, Wesley bowed to Lynn respectfully.

"Master!"

Lynn responded, "Wesley, I need you to lead Earl and some soldiers to Bo Xi Town!"

Hearing this, both Rose and Wesley raised their eyebrows involuntarily.

Lynn said solemnly, "There is one thing I need to inform you in advance."

"To provide marching speed, I can only dispatch... five hundred heavy cavalry and one thousand two hundred light cavalry to you."

"I need you to, within seven days, extinguish the two manors of Bo Xi Town as much as possible."

"At least, destroy one manor."

"Then, bring everything from the destroyed manor back to Morgan Town!"

Lynn’s words became solemn, staring directly at Wesley.

"Wesley, do you think you can do it?"

Feeling Lynn’s questioning, Wesley’s expression slightly tightened.

When Rose found Tim Jones, he learned from Tim Jones about the information on the manor lords in Bo Xi Town.

Thoughts in Wesley’s mind quickly spun around.

Lynn continued, "Purely based on numbers, the gap is at least more than sixfold."

"Plus, it’s unfamiliar territory, a long distance, and a short time..."

"I know the difficulty of this external operation is very high!"

Lynn changed his tone and continued.

"However, Jon Zuck is about to lead the supporter manor lord’s army to attack Morgan Town."
